Is Git Better With Continuous LAN-Speed Availability?

The funkily named distributed software development company WANdisco has announced the next release of Git MultiSite for continuous LAN-speed availability Git access.

Designed for developer collaboration developers everywhere, even across a WAN, the new features simplify configuration and help enforce policies for performance and security.

Git MultiSite 1.2 includes centralized management and replicated configuration settings for administration, and enhanced security across multiple sites — the product integrates with common ALM toolsets with support for distributed notification mechanisms.

The firm says the above features alleviate administrative burdens and boost security for global enterprises looking to streamline their source control management systems.

The new release also enables integration with WANdisco Git Access Control for security. This protects intellectual property by providing granular access control with enterprise-grade authorization and audit capabilities.

"Large enterprises are using Git for faster, more agile, and collaborative development," said Jay Lyman, senior analyst for enterprise software at 451 Research. "However, sometimes tools like these add tremendous complexity, so managers and administrators appreciate the centralized management and seamless integration capabilities provided by solutions like WANdisco Git MultiSite, and this is key for global enterprises."

"Git MultiSite provides enterprises with global disaster recovery and 100% uptime for Git," said David Richards, WANdisco Chairman and CEO. "Git MultiSite 1.2 adds features that further enhance performance, manageability, and security for enterprises that value their data and appreciate the ability to maximize their source code management systems."
